Ten on Tuesday
1. I've never done a Ten on Tuesday before, but I have lots of little bits about our life to share that don't warrant their own post. I'm actually starting it on Monday so I can be sure I have time to think of ten interesting stories/facts to share. One down, only nine to go....
2. Ruby is really into practicing her letters right now. She has the foam letters in the bathtub and cloth ones in the playroom so we play with letters at least five times a day. She also points to letters on signs, the keyboard, and books to name them. I'm amazed that she already knows ten letters consistently. My favorite part is when she points to the D and says "D, Dada, Dada, D."
3. David has started playing soccer on Monday nights with a rec league. He looks hot in his shin guards and cleats.
4. We've started the very early stages of potty training with Rubina. She is fascinated with all things poop, so I figured we might as well take advantage of it. Ruby has two potties that she practices on. She has also decided that one of her toy trucks makes a good potty spot. Whenever she plays with it, she sits on top of the truck, saying "poop, poop, poop." We have deemed it the dump truck.
5. I went with a friend to see Babies this weekend. The movie was absolutely beautiful. I already want to see it again.
6. In very important Emilia news, I think the mojito might be replacing the margarita as my drink of choice. I love margaritas, but don't always like how sweet they are; it makes it hard to drink more than one. I'm meeting my friend, Valentina, for drinks at Roaring Fork tonight where I will conduct my taste test. I'll be sure to keep everyone updated on my final decision.
7. Like many babies, Ruby likes to play rough with Dad and cuddle with Mom. David and I enjoy the roles we have been given, but both venture into the other's territory sometimes. The last few days, Ruby has started walking on my back if I lay on my belly. She loves to practice balancing and it feels oh so good on my back. When she falls down each time, it cracks me up because she immediately laughs and says "ooooh, Dada."
8. Another sign that Ruby is officially a toddler: "Whasthat? Whasthat?" has become a common phrase in our house.
9. Today is Ruby's boyfriend's birthday. Jack is three years old now and one of the cutest boys we know. We did an excellent job in choosing Ruby's future spouse: he's a little older and more mature, has eyelashes to die for, and has a great sense of humor. Happy Birthday, Jack!
10. The End.
